Why did my WCB premiums increase?
Épisode 26
mardi 13 août 2024 • Durée 25:59
Everyone likes surprises when you get money. Nobody likes surprises that cost you money. Especially when you've been doing all you can to keep expenses low. When you've tried to do the right thing, but out of nowhere the WCB springs a bill on you that you didn't expect.
What's worse, there isn't much of an understanding why. There is no explanation. Only there was a recalculation and you owe them money.
In this episode I share the 3 most common reasons WCB premiums increase and what you can do about it.

You have a plan and it's not working. You can't make sense of the situation, but your team is looking to you to guide them to achieving the goal.
How you react in chaotic situations can be the difference between a fantastic come back story or a complete breakdown.
In this episode, I talk about how I help clients bring their teams back from the brink. What strategies I took from pro sports to help folks like you achieve the goals you want even when they don't start the way you wanted.

Controlling Your Emotions in a WCB claim
Épisode 15
mardi 5 mars 2024 • Durée 29:52
You don't work in WCB claims without wanting to freak out on someone at least once. Decisions don't go your way. People not listening. Bosses who don't give a care. Workers that won't cooperate. Seems like any side of the fence you sit on, there is problems to be had. These problems sometimes lead to anger, frustration, and anxiety for all involved.
In this episode we dig deeper into the causes of these emotions as they relate to WCB claims and what you can do to keep control when all you want to do is lose control.

WCB: It's about the money
Épisode 14
mardi 20 février 2024 • Durée 31:04
When WCB claims happen, it can affect an workers ability to earn an income and a company to turn a profit.
BUT...
People want to believe WCB is about more than the money. Perhaps it is.
In this episode I'll discuss my thoughts on this polarizing topic and go over some special scenarios sent to us by YOU! The Simplifier Community.
I will dissect the real life scenario and how it impacts both worker and employer. Letting you decide...
Is WCB claims management all about the money?
You be the judge.

WCB: The story of broken promises
Épisode 11
mardi 9 janvier 2024 • Durée 38:39
The WCB system was never perfect…but it didn’t have to be. It was just supposed to hold on to its promise which is to take care of injured workers in the most cost-effective way for the employer.
More and more evidence is coming up and it has a lot of people asking questions.
Well Simplifiers I’m pissed and so are many of you.
When I reflected on the past year, and replayed the conversations with folks just like you, it makes sense why we can’t help but wonder why the WCB system is so messed up and is there any way to change it.
In an emotionally charged discussion I delve deeper into:
- Why the WCB system is broken,
- Who needs to fix it,
- How to fix it,
and how to protect you, your company, and your employees.
Timeline:
1:18 - Intro to why I have beef with the WCB system
5:18 - Getting rid of common myths around the WCB system
10:49 - My grievance with the WCB system
11:32 – Trends in WCB decision making
12:33 – The #1 reason the system is broken

20:00 – Finding the answers

28:05 – A new perspective

How to get control of a chaotic WCB claim right now!
Épisode 10
mardi 26 décembre 2023 • Durée 13:47
The problem with WCB claims is they're unpredictable. They're unpredictable because they involve people. People with thoughts, feelings, and emotions that can change in an instant. This can cause a normal situation to become chaotic if you're not ready.
In this episode, I'm going to share the strategies I've used over the years to feel in control no matter how chaotic things may get on a WCB claim. Whether I'm managing or appealing a claim, it helps when you feel under control. It also helps in keeping things at work instead of bringing it home and taking it out on people you love.
In this episode you'll learn such things as:
- How to deal with multiple incidents that happen in a short period of time
- How to get control of the situation right now
- The key to getting control of "cluster" claims
- How to make decisions during chaos
- How to get buy-in to the plan from people around you
If you've ever stressed about WCB claims, then this is an episode you can't miss!

You're asking the wrong questions when it comes to WCB claims
Épisode 9
mardi 12 décembre 2023 • Durée 18:28
It is said that "the devil is in the details" which is to say that something may seem simple, but it's the details that complicate things and cause problems.
This is exactly what we are talking about in this episode. Too often we are quick to avoid the details and just want to get the job done. A worker reports an injury and we ask 2-3 questions, have them fill out some paperwork and then we're done.
When someone reports a WCB claim to you, you want to get ALL the details to avoid the problems that come later on. You become a story teller, someone that influences other people. How can you influence them if your WCB investigation doesn't include a proper interview of witnesses and the injured worker?
Together we will walk the journey of a key part of the WCB story. You want to make sure to grab a pen and paper when listening to this episode!
